    Sorry missed a body shot. She is vaulted too. Her momma is a silvery blue BBS.

    Partridge Silkies - Nothing else

    I kept her even though I suspect some Polish in her background. Her Dad is lengthy. Her toes number 4 and she has a ridge in her comb. Is this considered a Morehead Grey?

    I bought Rhode Island White ( is this the correct breed) & pullets or cockerels?

    The straight comb is recessive in the RIW. It happens. Cackle purchased its R.I.W steaight combs as culls from R.I.W breeders working on bringing back the breed.

    Rhode Island White Thread

    I inquired with Cackle Hatchery. A hatchery with a history of purchasing breeding stock from quality breeders of several different breeds. I asked about this not a real breed business. Turns out the R.I.W steaight comb stock are culls that hatched with a straight comb. Which if you look at what...

    Cream Legbars

    The markings more than the obvious DQ.I need to start with what color is more desirable. Then move through the DQs. I have to girls from the Crele roo. One has a kinky comb the other does not. Finding a male in AK is tough with 2 breeders here. One place has a mess of males they are growing out...

    whiting blues

    I was looking at those and when I saw Leghorn I realized it was a waste of males. Currently working on a dual purpose layer of bright green. The hybrid is handy as they mature faster and have superior thrivability.

    True Blue Whiting info please?

    I have been told that after the first cross the egg production drops alot. That the best thing to do is just get a Leghorn roo and add him to a flock of pure AM hens. Eat the males and keep the hens for layers. I am using a dual purpose breed in my AM hybrid project so the males are meatier. LH...

    What breed do you suggest fast growing, good laying~ non hybrid

    My rearch tells me that Delwares and white rocks are fast growing dual purpose birds. I grew out a dozen cornish crosses last fall. The hens were great. I detected an odor while butchering the males and the meat tasted like that. Maybe 10 weeks was to long. I cannot find a hatchery to sex them...

    Self Blue (Lavender) Silkie Thread

    So this little one hatched from my BBS/Paint flock. Grampa was a blue cream looking bird that popped up in a paryridge flock. As a chick it was orange and blue. Not Splash or blue. Can self blue come from creamblue?

    Questions on incubating bantam eggs

    I don't leave them in the bator either. A ten gallon tank makes a nice ambient draft free clean brood for the first few days. My incubator is gross after a few days of hatching if they are left and I worry about belly infections

    Silkies Of A Different Color

    Can a breeder of Blue Creams post a picture of new chicks? I have hatched a few oddly shadded wild marked chicks in the past that turned into what people are calling blue creams.
